If you’ve ever used any of the Google Maps or Geo APIs, you’ll likely have watched a video, read a doc, or explored some code written
by Ankur Kotwal. We sat down with him to discuss his experience with these
APIs, from the past, to the present and through to the future. We discuss how
to get started in building mapping apps, and how to consume many of Google’s web services that support them.

We also discuss the Santa Tracker application, that Ankur was instrumental in delivering, including some fun behind the
scenes stories of the hardes project manager he’s ever worked with!
